Tell me about your ‘The Beginning’

“We first met on Tinder where all the best love stories start. Ben sent a photo of a loaf of bread he was proud of baking and we ended up communicating in bread-related puns for ages.

When we finally went on a real life date we had a picnic in Camperdown park. Ben brought along all these homemade pickles, yummy meats and even lactose free cheese for me. I remember all these dogs wanted in on the picnic and we totally embraced it and loved playing with the dogs. Now we have a dog of our own!”

When and where did you get engaged?

“We were travelling in Spain and decided to watch the sunset on one of our last nights in Madrid. We found a park called “Park of the 7 Tits” named after the 7 hills around the park that had views over the city! As we were watching the sunset Ben gave me a big hug and asked if I wanted to get married. I asked “Are you proposing right now?!” and when I realized that was what was happening of course I said yes. We were so excited and decided to celebrate by eating our body weight in churros for dessert.”
